Illinois Summons-Appointment Of Guardian For Disabled Person is a legal document issued by the court to initiate the process of appointing a guardian for an incapacitated adult. The summons is used to notify those involved in the guardianship process, including the disabled person, their family, and other individuals who might be interested in the proceedings. The document specifies the individuals and organizations who must be notified of the summons and the date, time, and location of the court hearing. Depending on the circumstances, the court may appoint a guardian for a disabled person with mental or physical limitations that prevent them from making decisions for themselves. In Illinois, there are two types of guardianship: plenary guardianship and limited guardianship. Plenary guardianship grants the guardian authority over all the disabled person's personal and financial decisions, while limited guardianship grants the guardian authority over only certain decisions.
